Godammit I'm terrible with these things. Can someone please PM me with the answer. AUD$1000 for 840 SCs is a bargain.

Yes, I mean how do you book a OW around the world award in F for 420K. It's almost impossible as if you leave it until seats are released for your last sector, seats for the first sector are gone ... As stated - I managed to book an around the world for two people - but booked it on a sector by...

An award that is (sorry). I know these exist, but not sure how anyone can ever be successful booking one... I've recently booked a round the world in F on a sector basis. Went on-line as soon as the seats were released 12 months in advance for each day of my planned journey and managed to book 2...

Amex has a current "referral bonus" promotion where the referrer gets a bonus of half the points that the new cardholder gets. The current bonus point offer on Amex Platinum is 80,000 points. So, the bonus is 40,000 points for a total of 120,000 points. And of course thanks for the advice. I...

$900 is a bit expensive I think ... I could get 120,000 QF points easily for that by referring my Fiance to Amex Platinum and then just book 2xF awards on AA.... is there no credit card deals in Aus ?

Hi all, I'm doing an around the world in F next year (woohoo !) for my honeymoon. This was all booked on points, bar one domestic segment in the US - from JFK to LAS. We've booked this is economy and I undertstand that you need 15,000 points each to upgrade to F. I'm actually not an...

I just received another invite yesterday. My current spend is probably about $80K in the last year. I had a centurion for a couple of years but changed back to platinum as I just couldn't see the value. Nothing's really changed on that front - the fee of $4300 juust doesn't give me much more...

If you call priority pass they will send through a letter confirming your membership. This will be accepted by the lounges.

I ve tried that before and the customs guys wouldn't let me through with no baggage. They told it was my baggage, I had to wait for it.

I never buy my own insurance. I did a bit of an audit a few years back against other policies and found the Amex policy to be far better than most. FYI some of the benefits only apply if you put the trip on the card - e.g. the cash after a 4 hour flight delay.

But the same companion fares are also available for platinum charge card holders ...

Yep mine arrived today too.

Now if only they had Bollinger La Grand Annee ... it's not stupidly priced like Krug / Dom but my god is it fantastic.

Yes, but it seems to me like something that should be covered by a decent policy - particularly if connecting from one form of scheduled transport to another.

This seems to be missing from the Amex policies. I was on a Island in Fiji a few months ago. We got away fine - but the scheduled transfer for siome friends who stayed on broke down. They were unable to make their flight as a result. The options were either get a heli to the airport, or fly...

I also had the 0 points posting error. I was told I had to wait until 2 months after the transaction and then they would investigate.

It took about 3 weeks at a guess.

Yep I got it about a week ago.

The most I've done in one hit is over 800K - from a Plat card to QFF.
